(Paperback, 2003). 2003 proof copy. Paperback. Pp188. Uncorrected proof copy. Very good. "When big corporate strip-mining interests begin to take over a ranching town in southeastern Montana - wide-open coulee and bluff country - all hell breaks loose. It seems the land is fighting back; vast sage flats erupt in fire, massive storms blast down from all directions, rattlesnakes strike from out of nowhere, and an extinct buffalo wolf is heard howling in the night. .One man tries to hold back the tide of disaster caused by corporate greed: Joe Graves is a rancher, whose family has ranched this arid, harsh land for generations. .He hunts, and fishes, and considers the land an extension of himself. But what he doesn't know is that his father sold the mineral rights to the ranch. And Graves is about to find out that Dark Star [Inc.] is coming to claim those rights as well as his water." (I expect the Indians who were there before Graves Snr. were quite cross too. About Graves, that is.) .

Written by one of North America's most famous wildlife photographers and deer-hunting experts, The Deer Hunter's Encyclopedia is a compilation of years of columns, magazine articles, and tidbits of knowledge, touching on every facet of deer and deer hunting.

Among the topics are hunting (tips, tactics, and how deer behave during hunting seasons), antlers (their development and significance, both to deer and to hunters), deer behavior, deer anatomy, fawns, deer management, breeding, and the rut. Liberally illustrated with hundreds of Dr. Rue's photographs, The Deer Hunter's Encyclopedia gives the reader all the information needed not only to hunt deer successfully, but also to study, understand, and appreciate these animals throughout the course of the year. .

Condition: New. (Hardcover, 2003). (2003) ND later reprint. 8vo (156 x 236mm). Ppviii,216. Colour photographs, frontispiece map. Brown and cream boards, spine titled in gilt. New unread copy in dust-wrapper. Stephen Bodio travels to the westernmost province of Mongolia, in search of traditional falconry with golden eagles. "The union of Bodio's consummate writing skills with his passion for falconry, Mongolia, and its people, results in an infectious, lyrical read, which transports the reader from a blue-collar neighborhood in Boston to the vast, mountainous deserts of Mongolia. As a fellow author and falconer who reveres eagles, I tore through this book - a rare, nonfiction page-turner - relishing its vivid imagery." (Emma Ford). "Eagle dreams is quite possibly the best book ever written about eagles, but it's also a terrific travelogue. Bodio writes with scrupulous honesty about one of the world's last empty places." (Lawrence Millman). "Steve Bodio has that rare gift of seeing animals and landscape without sentimentality but with abiding love." (Ted Kerasote). .
